A HIGHLAND delivery firm has pledged to support local small businesses as they continue to try to deal with incredibly tough trading conditions.

M&H Carriers, which has bases in Inverness and Helmsdale, says it will continue to offer affordable delivery services to businesses at a time when effective distribution routes are key to keeping afloat.

Staff will be observing proper hygiene procedures to keep everyone involved safe.

Managing director Fraser MacLean said: “There is great uncertainty for businesses across the country, but it is incredible to see the resilience and perseverance of small business owners as they adapt to new ways of working.

“At times like this – when there are so many unanswered questions about pandemic restrictions and Brexit trading conditions – it is more important than ever for businesses to support each other, to ensure we can all pull through together.

“Our staff have been fully trained to ensure deliveries are carried out safely in compliance with all Covid regulations, and we have been working throughout the pandemic to carry freight and deliveries for businesses of all sizes to ensure trading continues.

“Our two-man delivery service has also ensured large items that are essential to a good quality of life in lockdown – including washing machines, fridges and freezers – are still able to reach the customers who need them.

“We recognise that many small businesses are venturing into new territory with online orders and offering deliveries when they have previously only operated bricks-and-mortar premises.

“The thought of suddenly having to service these orders can be daunting, but as specialists in providing delivery services for over 30 years, we are equipped to provide the support and guidance these companies need.”
